Nine people have been prosecuted and ordered to pay compensation for naming the woman raped by Welsh footballer Ched Evans online.

Detective Chief Inspector Peter Doyle, Senior Investigating Officer from South Wales Police said: "We are aware that the names of Ian Watkins' co-defendants have been published on social media. Clearly, there remains strong public feeling about this case.

"We will consult with the Crown Prosecution Service regarding the matter and where appropriate action will be taken."

He added: "Further breaches of this obligation are likely to lead to prosecutions being brought."
